#Microsoft torpediert #Freeware die besser funktioniert als alles was aus #Redmont selbst kommt.
Defender bremst VLC, Paint.net & andere Programme aus um User zur verwendung der hauseigenen #Spyware zu zwingen. Es ist alles so traurig, #CEO haben keinerlei Scham mehr und es geht nicht mehr darum dem Kunden irgendwas für sein Geld zu liefern sondern nur noch darum seine Opfer so hart wie möglich auszubeuten. Im vergleich zu Techfirmen ist die #Mafia ein #NGO

@francks Identifier le #spyware , refaire l’historique de l’arrivé de l’ordi dans les locaux, c’est une chose. Demontrer que c’est untel qui l’a installé c’est une autre paire de manche.

Blend between Banking Malware & Spyware

A newly identified Android malware family named Manic combines banking malware and mobile spyware capabilities, targeting Ukrainian banks, government services, messaging applications, Russian and European financial institutions, and global fintech and cryptocurrency services. Active since February 2026, Manic enables extensive Device Takeover operations through sophisticated surveillance and remote-control features. It employs advanced PIN stealing techniques without requiring traditional overlay attacks, utilizing Accessibility services as a UI keylogger to capture lock-screen inputs, recovery phrases, and authentication codes. A distinctive feature is its Wi-Fi mesh egress technique, allowing compromised devices to relay stolen data through other infected phones via Wi-Fi Direct, Bluetooth, or BLE when direct C2 access is unavailable. The malware monitors 169 applications including banks, cryptocurrency wallets, government eID services, and military-focused messengers across multiple countries.

DragonDoll: lo spyware Android che si finge un aggiornamento Chrome e legge Telegram, WhatsApp e Signal in 26 Paesi

https://insicurezzadigitale.com/dragondoll-lo-spyware-android-che-si-finge-un-aggiornamento-chrome-e-legge-telegram-whatsapp-e-signal-in-26-paesi/

Un nombre « sans précédent » d'utilisateurs Apple ont reçu une alerte spyware. Le terme est fort — mais ce qui compte ici, c'est la surface d'attaque : des appareils grand public ciblés par des outils jusqu'ici réservés à des cibles très précises. La démocratisation du spyware commercial, c'est peut-être ça le vrai signal. #infosec #spyware #mobilesecurity

🇺🇸 domstole vil begynde at offentliggøre, hvor ofte FBI bruger #spyware

FBI har brugt værktøjer, som spyware, siden 1998, men til dato er der ingen offentlige data, hvor ofte FBI anvendte dem

Det er ved at ændre sig - i hvert fald til brug af spyware til at tappe ind i nogens realtids-kommunikation

Begyndende i 2029 vil det 🇺🇸 retsvæsen offentliggøre præcis, hvor mange gange dommere der har godkendt #wiretap under kategorien network investigating techniques eller NIT

US courts will begin reporting the frequency of government-authorized spyware use in wiretap operations starting in 2029. This move aims to enhance transparency in surveillance practices by including data on network investigative techniques (NITs) in annual Wiretap Reports. Monitoring this development will be essential for understanding its impact on privacy rights and public discourse.

Apple sends warnings: Mercenary spyware in 110 countries

“The FBI has been using hacking techniques and tools, such as spyware, since at least 1998, but to date there is no public data counting how often the feds were deploying them. That’s about to change — at least for the use of spyware for tapping into someone’s real-time communications.

Starting in 2029, U.S. judiciary will publicly disclose precisely how many times judges authorized the use of wiretaps to be carried out with hacking tools and spyware, which fall under the category of what the feds call network investigating techniques, or NITs.

For almost two decades, the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts, which coordinates operations across the judiciary, has issued annual Wiretap Reports. These reports detail how many wiretaps were authorized every year, breaking the numbers down by whether federal or state judges ordered them, in which states the wiretaps were conducted, what type of crime was investigated, and other data.”
